News and other articles with clickbait bypassed by including the spoiler in the title (put it after a vertical bar "|") or in the post body. Same basic idea as reddit's savedyouaclick, but less uptight for now. E.g. it's fine to link directly to non-paywalled news sources. Mod volunteers wanted.

If you dont know, already knowing what to look for is a very big help in finding vulnerabilities. Its like handing an architect a build for a house and saying „There may be a problem, but there may be none.” vs saying „There is a problem in the 3rd floor, because last time it collapsed after having to hold over 200kg”. For one, you don't look into it too much, but for the other you already know where to look and what to look for.

The article title is misleading - it frames it as if this is a success for chatgpt? Missing it 92 times out of 100 even when prompted to find that exact CVE is pretty shit.
